Aragorn.

All the guys want to be him, all the ladies want to marry him. He is tough, wise, and can handle himself.

What a badass.

Man, I can't belive nobody mentioned Bruce Lee. Anybody who can do one arm, two finger pushups, and is able to beat the piss out of anybody on earth is pretty bad.

If you have ever read the series "Tooth and Claw (Frank Frazetta's Death Dealer Series)", the main character "Gath of Baal" is a bad MoFo. In one fight with several hardned vetrans he kills them all bare handed! One of the guys even gets his arm ripped off at the sholder by Gath. Some great fights take place throughout these books and Gath truely earns his title "Death Dealer"!

Elric of Melniboné, though he's not much without his sword, he did destroy the entire world. Blood and Souls for my Lord Arioch!

Runner Up: Mahasamatman, the Great Souled Sam, from Lord of Light. The man fought the gods through dozens of incarnations across hundreds of years just because they pissed him off.

Samurai Jack, Raven, Thomas the Valerhu, Batman, Conan, Lan al'Madragoran, and Gregor the Mountain who Rides all have excellent claims too.

Oh hell yeah, I forgot about him. And that figure pretty much sums up why.

The President of the United States is top guy on my list. The fact is, he is feared by a huge number of the most cruel, bloodthirsty, and rabid criminals in the world. We live in an era of powerful conflict. It's one of the most dangerous times in history. The world we live in is a safer place because of him.

the biggest badass of all time (close, anyway) is Edward Norton from American History X. Especially when he is in prison and everyone is staring at him and he rips his shirt off to reveal the gigantic swastika.

I'm not a neo-nazi by the way, it's still badass though. I don't agree with his beliefs (at that point in the movie), but damn, balls of steel.

<b>Art</b>, if I didn't know you were serious, I would not expect to read a funnier thing all day. Bad + Ass != Badass.

OTOH, with the exception of the current office holder, you make a good point about the office.
